No wonder they finally broke down and gave us a great R2-D2 with the RotS preview sculpt in the Resurgence of the Jedi BP.

Hopefully whatever they come up with next will allow them to finally retire that VOTC R2 sculpt...

I wonder if they'll finally go in the swiss army knife direction with R2 at long last? But it shouldn't prove too difficult. Especially in light of how many features were included with the Clone Wars R2-D2.

I hope so. I am tired of all the plain R2's with different coloring, etc. Let's get some sensorscope, pop-up light saber, saws, rockets, sockets, etc going. I know some of those features in the films piss people off but R2 needs to get a bit jazzed up.
